We aim to explore the expression of Cripto-1 (CR-1) protein in patients with early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
We investigated CR-1 expression status in specimens obtained from 240 patients with resected NSCLC and 30 cases of para-carcinous normal lung tissues.
Compared with normal lung tissue, the positive expression of CR-1 protein in NSCLC was significantly increased (p < 0.005). Cox multivariate regression analysis showed that the expression of CR-1 protein was an independent prognostic factor for early stage NSCLC (p = 0.002).
Detecting CR-1 protein can predict the prognosis and recurrence in patients with NSCLC.
本研究旨在探讨早期非小细胞肺癌(NSCLC)患者中 Cripto-1(CR-1)蛋白的表达情况。
本研究检测了 240 例接受手术治疗的 NSCLC 患者和 30 例癌旁正常肺组织标本中 CR-1 的表达状态。
与正常肺组织相比,NSCLC 中 CR-1 蛋白的阳性表达显著增加(p<0.005)。Cox 多因素回归分析显示,CR-1 蛋白的表达是早期 NSCLC 的独立预后因素(p=0.002)。
检测 CR-1 蛋白可预测 NSCLC 患者的预后和复发情况。
